Roving RN-42
============
TODO
----
Power saving:
- When not connected in a few minuts get into deep sleep to save battery life
- CTS is needed for waking up from deep sleep? How deep sleep is activated?
Improving:
- Status LED; connecting, liked, low battery, sleeping, deep sleeping
- Battry voltage display by command; like full(solid), medium(blink), low(flash)
- move rn42 to protocol directory when it becomes reusable stack
- LUFA sendchar should be buffered and serial_uart.c buffur size is too large(256).
- keyboard LED update
Testing:
- Factroy reset doesn't work; need to **test again** 10K pull-up is too high?
- Lipo voltage ADC value is not stabilized
- DCDC converter: squeaky inducter; try other inductors
- Keymap layer bug: during space is pressed(mousekey) press Fn(HHKB) then release space before Fn, in result HHKB layer is locked(toggled) unintentionally.
DONE:
- Lipo charger configuration: fast charge time: USB charger spec? -- used 2kohm
- use LED of charger to alarm low battery. LED should be powered directly from Lipo? - cancel; powered from VUSB
- Use RTS in serial_uart.c to resolve missing chars from help message of RN-42 - done
- CTS/RTS lines are needed? just connect in loop back if no flow control is needed. - done
- add IO pin to charger status CHRG; LED control(low) and detect charge status(input HiZ) 07.24
- LINKED: add trace on PIO2 to PF6 07.24
- Lipo voltage ADC sensing
- Lipo charger MCP73831: needs capacitor 4.7uF *2
- USB connection check - 07.01
- BT on/off check: whether RX line is pulled up? - checking RTS 07.01
- USB/BT switching BT is on -> BT, BT is off -> USB - 07.01
- Under voltage lock out UVLO for protection of Lipo - Lipo has discharge protection at 3.100V 07.01
- Power saving: HHKB scan, BT radio control - 9h with 850mAh, this is enough 07.01
- Power selector doesn't work; Q4 MOSFET leaks from Lipo to USB power line. -- use Schottky instead 07/04
TROUBLE SHOOT
-------------
07/16 After fix of voltage dividor on GPIO6, had a trouble that it could not send a char to BT module, though could receive.
Found R8 had wrong 1K resistor and changed to 10K, after that it can send to the module again. Not sure how it had sent with the wrong 1K before.
07/18 On Linux, had an USB related trouble; keyobard or console didn't work for some reason. Changing PID cured this problem. Very annoying, took very long time before resolved it.

Serial connection
-----------------
Serial line: 115200bps, 8bit, 1-stopbit, non-parity, no flow control
SSP: 115200bps, 8bit, 1-stopbit, non-parity, no flow control(via Bluetooth)
To enter command mode disconnect the module from host and type '$$$'.(you will see 'CMD')
To exit type '---'(you will see 'END') and '+' to get local echo.

Apple iOS

Keyboard can be used with iPhone, but mouse cannot.
To operate iOS with keyboard is not so useful, though.
There may be iOS specific scancodes?

Pairing
-------
First, host initiates pairing process and once it is done, auto connect will work thereafter.
SM,3 Master mode
SM,4 Auto Connect DTR Mode uses GPIO6 to make and break connection(Mode =DTR)
confirm: auto connect works and control connection with GPIO6
SM,5 Auto Connect ANY Mode (Mode =ANY)
each time GPIO is set, make inquiry and connect to the first found device
SM,6 automatically reconnect(Mode =Pair)
confirm: auto connect works well but difficult to enter command mode.
Fast data mode
--------------
The module enters fast data mode after 'remote configuration timer' window is passed from power on.
In this mode the module does not accept '$$$' to enter command mode.
Power Management
----------------
Inquiry and Page window Idle or Active (3.1.1)
Downside: delay in discovery or connection time
SI, // set inquiry scan window(discovery) on/off duty?
SJ, // set page scan window(connection)
This reduces averaege power >20mA to 5mA(3mA in Sniff mode)
Sniff mode Transmit
Sniff mode is disabled by default and radio is active continuously when connected.(25-30mA)
In Sniff mode the radio wakes up intermittently and sleeps in very low power mode.(2mA)
SW,<val> // set interval timer(*0.625ms) 0000-7FFF
Deep sleep Idle (3.1.2)
In this mode the module shuts down completly and only draws about 300uA. To enable this set the most signifant bit(0x8000) of Sniff interaval timer.
SW,8320 // deep sleep enable(interval=0x320*0.625=500ms)
In normal sleep the firmware is still running in idle mode, and wakes up about 20 times per second to check ports, update LEDs, etc. During deep sleep, the firmware actually stops runnig some tasks and the LEDs only update about once per second.
To wake from deep sleep there are three ways: (in worst case wake up takes 5ms)
*send a charactor to the UART(first charactor will be lost)
*toggle CTS low to high and wait 5ms
*wake automatically every slot time(<val>*0.625ms)
Once the radio is awake it stay active for exactly 1 second of inactivity and then sleeps again.
Downside: latency and data loss
Disable Output driver Idle or Active (3.1.3)
S%,1000 // set all GPIO pins(0-11) to inputs.
Lower Transmit Power Idle or Active (3.1.4)
SY,<hex> // transmit power setting(takes effect after a power cycle and reboot)
Downside: reducing effective range
Optimizig for Latency
---------------------
By default the firmware is optimized for throughput.
SQ,16 // set latency bit
SQ,0 // unset latency bit
Configuration timer settings
----------------------------
Remote configuration is used for the module to be configured with various commands over Bluetooth(SPP profile only?).
The module has remote configuration timer to allow remote configuration over Bluetooth after power up in Slave mode. In Master modes the remote configuration timer is set to 0(no remote configuration). (In Trigger Master mode the timer is used as an idle timer to break the connection after time expires with no charactors receive.)
ST,0 // no remote, no local when connected
ST,<1-252> // local and remote with timeout in seconds from power up
ST,253 // local only without timeout
ST,254 // remote only without timeout
ST,255 // local and remote without timeout
